Late night argument in Denver escalates into double stabbing

Two people were stabbed late night Tuesday in Denver as an argument escalated, police said.

The incident happened about 11 p.m. near West 4th Avenue and Fox Street, said Christine Downs, a Denver Police Department spokeswoman.

Two groups of people got into an argument, Downs said, and two men were stabbed.

One man made his way to a local hospital without the help of emergency responders, Downs said. The other stab victim refused to come out of a home in the area for a short time, but eventually came out without further incident.
